| Quote: Faithful One "Yer, seen that mentioned a few times. It's something which I don't think I would have interest in. The previous attempt at a 9s tournament was fairly pathetic, teams just put their kids out which is fair enough, but I'm not sure I'd travel 2 hours and fork out for tickets, food, accommodation to watch that. If they took it as serious as some teams in the NRL do, with ex players playing etc then it could have some entertainment value. Not sure they'd get 60,000 though.'"
Supposed it comes down to how well it was marketed with regards to crowds, and maybe how much prize money they was for the winner to how teams treated it. |

| Quote: Faithful One "The six team play offs I liked. 1 and 2 got 2 chances at it which I thought worked well.
I like a top 5 with 1 getting to the grand final and the winners of 2v5 and 3v4 playing each other, but I wonder how much momentum 1st place would lose not having a game for 3 weeks. This would give 1st place an extra incentive. There's no way we should scrap the grand final, it's one of 3 main money makers with Wembley and magic. I quite like the idea of the cc quarter finals being the new magic weekend, but the cost would dramatically increase for fans of they were only given a month's notice to book, as opposed to 6 months.'"
I agree with the GF and the Challenge Cup final, and the payments for winning or losing these competitions are transparent.
Not sure we’re the cash from the Magic Weekend goes, to pay big Nigel off perhaps. |

Make it financially viable, attractive and most clubs would be pushing for it. The game needs to be more inventive. Another incentive would be if the winner or the top three are allowed extra on their cap. Or some such thing. |

Be even more now 3 Rovers players are having to make emergency trips to London tomorrow to get visas. Doesn't say who but could Vaivai could be one with a conviction for assaulting his girlfriend?

They'd still beat us if we had to play them at Headingley tomorrow.

It’s game of thrones with Sir Kev “not the coach” Sinfield waiting to drop his sword on squire Jim.
A great team in decline.

Does that also include an imaginary visit to the Skyrack as well.

Reading the Leeds forum I can't believe how confident most of them are that they won't be in any danger and will also win every single game in the middle 8s. They're an absolutely awful looking team (possibly even worse than us) at the moment and I can see them losing to Rovers and Salford, if not also Toronto and Tolouse. Wouldn't surprise me one bit to see them in the MPG.

Nope, home games were key for them, 2 wins max for them I reckon.
Leeds, KR and Toronto straight up.
Salford v Toulouse/London in million pound game. |

Thank the lord we picked up points early this season because we'd be heading for the million pound game the way we are playing!
